In plain words
Uncracked City is a detective game set in real neighborhoods across Paris, Rio de Janeiro, Marrakech, Tokyo, and Sydney. Players search locations for clues, question AI suspects in one of six languages, and identify lies by cross-referencing statements with evidence. The game requires players to write an accurate report within three attempts. Cases progress from five training levels to increasingly difficult real cases, with suspects responding in distinct voices and some deliberately lying to mislead the investigation.

Voice driven murder mystery, Interview AI suspects with your voiceAug 2026 · whodunnitai.com · ▲215Hey HN! I'm excited to show off this really fun project I put together. I originally built this project 2-3 years ago, AI was already booming at the time, however voice AI agents were still very early. I loved my proof of concept at the time, but wasn't quite happy with it. I recently had the desire to check out the tech again, and know many of you will be interested. Interviews are speech to speech with OpenAI's gpt-realtime-2.1 over WebRTC. This model is... expensive, and because of that, I have to add some amount of restrictions, conversations are tied to a authenticated Clerk user id. I…
